Rolex Submariner Date Ref. 116610LV – A Rare Malachite-Dialed Marvel in Green

Already a modern icon, this Rolex Submariner Ref. 116610LV takes rarity to another level with a custom-fitted malachite dial—an extraordinary twist on the famed “Hulk” platform. Malachite, a richly banded green semi-precious stone long associated with luxury and royalty, gives this Submariner a completely unique character, turning a professional diver's tool into a piece of horological art. With its deep green Cerachrom bezel and stone dial pairing, this piece is unlike any other.

The 40mm Oystersteel case retains the classic proportions and ruggedness the Submariner is known for, complete with a unidirectional green ceramic bezel that's impervious to scratches and fading. The rich green bezel complements the swirling bands and natural striations of the malachite dial—each one unique due to the organic material used. The contrast between the dial's textured depth and the high-gloss bezel creates a visual harmony that's both exotic and unmistakably Rolex.

White gold surrounds the luminous Chromalight-filled indices and signature Mercedes hands, providing high legibility against the dial's vibrant backdrop. The date aperture at 3 o'clock is magnified by Rolex's Cyclops lens and integrated seamlessly into the display. The natural grain of the malachite catches the light differently from every angle, making the dial feel alive—an extremely rare sight on a Submariner, and especially striking paired with the green ceramic bezel.

Inside beats the Rolex Caliber 3135, a workhorse automatic movement beloved for its durability, accuracy, and reliability. COSC-certified and featuring a 48-hour power reserve, it supports both time and quickset date functionality. The case is waterproof to 300 meters (1,000 feet), secured by a Triplock screw-down crown and a solid caseback.

The Oyster bracelet, fitted with the Glidelock extension system, allows tool-free adjustments for a perfect fit whether worn over a wetsuit or under a cuff.

Combining Rolex's legendary dive watch architecture with the natural elegance of a malachite dial, this 116610LV is a bold and exceptionally rare variant of one of Rolex's most collectible models. Whether you're a connoisseur of gemstones or a discerning collector of Submariners, this is a piece that sets itself apart in both form and rarity.
